Algodoo

High speed camera with 48-pixel display (purple boxes at the bottom of the device)
Operates automatically, scans side to side
Instead of having a dozen some pixel camera with so many lasers, why not just rotate a few across a display?
Outputs black to display if the scanning laser hits nothing, outputs color of hit geometry otherwise.

PROS:
Camera has few lasers, thus is easy on even the oldest machines that still kick. I know because I'm using one.

Easily modifiable
Display resolution can be doubled by:
-Scaling the purple boxes near the bottom of the camera horizontally (scale down 0.5)
-Copying the purple boxes to the side that now has none
-Reducing motor speed in white axles to 30 rpm

CONS:
Currently has no way of sharing recorded information to additional components (am working on this)
Slow update rate, increasing motor speed without lowering resolution will cause latent patches on the display
